  • The best retinol without a prescription
Size: 0.16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This retinol is very good ! The only thing you should know before using it is to start out slow. I had been using a retinol that was not as strong for a year . Even though I still had a reaction because Paula's retinol is stronger then most over the counter ones. Try using every 3 days until you build up a tolerance. If not you will have burning, redness and peeling which will defeat the purpose of using retinol. Now that I have slowly worked up I have seen definite improvement of the lines on my face. You won't be disappointed if you follow my recommendation on how to start using it. ... show more

  • Read this before you start using it!!!
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I was introduced to this product by a friend who has similar skin/complexion. She looks fabulous so I decided to give it a whirl. Things you should know: 1. My beauty routine consisted of occasionally washing my face. And by occasional— I mean rarely. 2. I was always fortunate to have ‘good’ skin it didn’t break out or have big pores BUT it was super sensitive. 3. I’m lazy and will not do anything that requires a lot of work. 4. I’m 50. The pictures are in order of progress — blue top was day of first application —the next 3 are from the first 10 days and the last one is as of tonight. With all that said — I was instructed in detail about using the product. 1. Start slow — every other night 2. Keep it away from your eyes. 3. Use sunscreen and be very careful going out in the sun after a treatment. I started slow (2 applications following the instructions) and did not put it ‘near’ my eyes. I stop at my brow and just below my darks circles. It burned my skin off as if I was in Chernobyl when it exploded. It was AWFUL and it took 10 days to heal. (See pics) What I realized was with my sensitive skin I really should have put more time between applications. So once I healed — I then waited 6 days between applications as I had some dryness and a little sensitivity on my cheeks. I’ve been using the product now for a little over 3 weeks only had 4 applications and I’m already seeing marked improvement. My “11s” are much less obvious (see pics). My skin looks brighter and healthier. Lastly it’s a smooth as a baby’s rump — I suspect that has a lot to do with burning off the top 4 layers of skin, but I digress. This product is intense but effective. It will burn if you don’t ease into using it. Also — when they say don’t put it on your eyes — what they mean is anywhere near your eyes. Give a wide birth or else you risk having your face look like mine did. My eyelids were literally burned and I never touched them with the product that’s how strong it is. Now I keep it focused on my cheeks and a very tiny amount on the side of my eye for those dreaded crows feet. Other things of note: this is part of a very simple routine. Morning 1. Wash face 2. Use hyaluronic acid serum 3. Use Vitamin C serum Evening 1. Wash face 2. Use Retinol (slow at first - then work up to the right cadence for you) 3. Use moisturizer I use Beauty Counter products for the serums I use in the morning. I use Verse for my sunscreen and moisturizer. Obviously, PC’s retinol Cerave Moisturizing Face Wash I purchased everything except the Beauty Counter products through Amazon. I love all of the products and will continue using them. Hope this helps you make good decisions. ... show more

  • Great Retinol!
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is a great retinol! I’ve used ROC, LaRoche Posay, Sunday Riley, etc which were all good but this one is amazing. Since I’ve been using a retinol for 2 years I use it nightly. I’ve only been using it for 2 weeks and can already tell the difference. I’m 66 and it really firms my skin up in addition to softening it. I highly recommend this product! ... show more

  • Love the effectiveness, but not the small size
Size: 0.16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I purchased this product, because I wanted something stronger than most retinol serums. I can tell it is stronger than other serums that I have used, since my skin is reacting similar to actual Tretinoin. I have experienced some peeling and some sensitivity around the eyes. I am pleased with the product. Unfortunately, I did not realize the product was travel sized, so it did not last very long. ... show more

  • Dont waste your time and money - this is it for TURKEY NECK.
Size: 0.16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
ALERT: IF YOU'RE BUYING THIS, DO NOT SCROLL PASSED. This is the "sampler" size. I'm 6'3, 215 lbs and in excellent shape. 53 years old. Than, THIS TURKEY NECK CAME! Pissed, spent hours and hours trying to find if there is a real, legit, solution. Bought the sample. 1. HOLY SHIZZ - my turkey neck was incredibly noticeable. I applied with the a clean neck every three days, NOW LOOK AT THE PHOTO. 2. WARNING - This serum is expensive. Thus, why I bought this sampler. And it WORKS! 3. WARNING - Its a small pump at the top, once out of pumps of serum, that's it. And as usual, it would. The product still had "weight", so I cut it open, and what did I see? YOU HAVE TWO-THREE MORE WEEKS INSIDE! USE A Q-TIP. GO GET SOME. APPLY IT CORRECTLY, WITH A SHAVED NECK, WASHED CLEAN, AND DRIED. Apply! Wish I could have taken a before, its was humiliating. Take my word, it was FULL TURKEY. It's almost gone. Cut the top off, CAREFULLY, and get many more weeks. I'M BUYING THE BIG BOTTLE NOW. Cheers. ... show more
